TheAnswerPage.com (TAP), an international medical education resource, and the Americans for Safe Access (ASA), a national nonprofit (501(c)(3)), have created the Cannabis Care Certification (CCC) program to provide doctors and other healthcare professionals with the highest quality educational content focused on the endocannabinoid system and medical marijuana. The content and its presentation are designed to be of educational value and interest for those new to medical cannabis, as well as for those with years of experience in this area of clinical practice.

The Cannabis Care Certification (CCC) Course bundle includes “A Nationally Approved CME/CE Medical Marijuana Course” as well as “CBD in Clinical Care.” Thus, it introduces the reader to the endocannabinoid system, and addresses many aspects of the therapeutic use of marijuana, and also assists clinicians with the treatment and counseling of CBD consumers. The CCC course also includes membership to the Cannabis Care Certification (CCC) Program for medical professionals and much more.

Detailed Overview:

The Cannabis Care Certification (CCC) Course introduces the reader to the endocannabinoid system and its interaction with the components of the cannabis plant, and addresses various aspects of medical marijuana, including administration, therapeutic use, drug metabolism, physiologic and cognitive effects, potential risks, and drug interactions.

The use of marijuana in obstetric patients, pediatric patients, adolescent patients and elderly patients is discussed in detail. Important considerations for patients with ischemic heart disease, hepatic disease, psychotic illness, and those with a history of drug dependence are provided.

This course bundle also addresses the use of cannabidiol (CBD) in clinical care, and the information will assist clinicians in effectively treating and counseling CBD consumers. The physiological effects of CBD, CBD drug interactions, CBD’s side effects, and the conditions for which CBD has been shown by evidence-based clinical studies to be efficacious are all discussed in this course bundle.
